Eoghan Murphy claims Catherine Byrne was given 'no deal'
Housing Minister Eoghan Murphy has insisted Fine Gael colleague Catherine Byrne was given "no deal" to u-turn and back him in Tuesday's night's no-confidence motion, but gave no explanation for her sudden change of heart.
Mr Murphy rejected the suggestion during a media event in which he denied Ms Byrne was initially planning not to support him in the vote - despite Taoiseach Leo Varadkar publicly threatening to sack her if she did so.
